China is preparing to deploy humanoid robots at a busy border crossing with Vietnam. This marks a striking new chapter in the ...

The newest generation of microrobots is so small that a single unit can perch on the ridge of a fingerprint and practically ...

A tiny robot so small it can barely be seen can still "sense, think, and act" autonomously, according to the engineers who ...

Not long ago, for one reason or another, I made a statement here on autoevolution, essentially declaring that as long as AIs don't have physical bodies, there's nothing to be worried about. Well, ...

The device advances medicine toward a future that might see tiny robots sent into the body to rewire damaged nerves, deliver ...

Three soft robotics researchers from Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia in Italy and the University of Montpellier in France have developed a unique snake-like robot that 3D prints its own ...

Nobody knows what sleeping mushrooms dream of when their vast mycelial networks flicker and pulse with electrochemical responses akin to those of our own brain cells. But given a chance, what might ...

Robots small enough to travel autonomously through the human body to repair damaged sites may seem the stuff of science ...

In the world of robotics, we’ve often seen robots rely on their mechanical hands to pick up and manipulate objects. But that approach doesn’t quite capture the full essence of how humans interact with ...

Scientists in Australia have developed a flexible soft robotic arm that 3D-prints cells onto organs, thereby circumventing many of the risks associated with surgery. A beta version of the ...

If a soft-bodied robot uses rigid actuators to move its body, then it isn't really soft now, is it? An experimental new caterpillar-inspired bot gets around that conundrum by using soft, collapsible ...
